Was Lori Vallow Evil or Delusional? Therapist Breaks It Down What happens when a mother convinces herself her children are zombies—and that killing them is an act of divine love? Lori Vallow Daybell's story isn't just another twisted true crime—it's a deep dive into the psychology of delusion, religious obsession, and manipulation. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins us to unpack how Lori's disturbing belief system merged with narcissistic traits and collided with Chad Daybell's paranoia—leading to a series of deaths cloaked in apocalyptic visions. This conversation explores how someone who seemed like an ordinary, if eccentric, mom became convinced she was a goddess tasked with a deadly mission. And disturbingly, how many others might be just a step away from the same dark path. #LoriVallow #ChadDaybell #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalAnalysis #DoomsdayMom #DelusionalDisorder #LDSextremism #ChildMurderCase #MentalHealthAndCrime #ReligiousDelusion Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Zombies, Cults & Kids: Lori Vallow's Mental Spiral Explained Lori Vallow didn't rant about zombies in court—and that might be the most chilling part. Instead of invoking bizarre religious visions or preaching about doomsday prophecies, she showed restraint. But why? Was this calculated control, or something deeper, darker? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott unpacks the eerie awareness Lori displayed on the stand, how delusional disorders manifest beneath high-functioning exteriors, and the deeply disturbing loyalty of her brother Alex. From histrionic behaviors to detached justifications for murder, this conversation reveals a psychological profile that's even more unsettling than the cult beliefs. Why did a respected doctor harbor secret delusions about euthanasia? Could Lori's Burger King excuse actually be strategic? And how do cult dynamics explain family loyalty that ends in bloodshed? #LoriVallow #ChadDaybell #AlexCox #DelusionalDisorder #TrueCrimePsychology #ShavaunScott #HistrionicPersonality #LoriVallowTrial #TrueCrimeAnalysis #HiddenKillersPodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Karen Read Said 'I Hit Him' – But What Does That Really Mean? When a Boston cop ends up dead after a party, the official story says his girlfriend, Karen Read, drunkenly backed over him. But is that really what happened? Or is this a case of gaslighting, memory gaps, and a powerful old boys' club protecting its own? In this episode, psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins us to dissect the chaotic first days of Read's retrial. From conflicting confessions and damning Dateline interviews to speculation that she's been manipulated into rewriting her own memories, the truth feels more elusive than ever. Is Karen Read a killer, or a scapegoat in a web of law enforcement coverups and social media hysteria? This isn't just about what happened that night—it's about who controls the narrative when public opinion becomes weaponized. #KarenRead #KarenReadTrial #BostonPolice #TrueCrimePodcast #ShavaunScott #HiddenKillersPodcast #PoliceCoverup #PsychologicalManipulation #DatelineConfession #MassachusettsJustice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Psychology of a ‘Doomsday Mom' What Made Lori Vallow Kill? What turns a loving mother into a self-declared goddess on a divine mission to destroy? Lori Vallow Daybell's transformation from suburban mom to apocalyptic believer captivated the nation—and left a trail of death and disbelief. In this episode, psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott unpacks the rare psychological disorders that may have fueled Lori's descent into delusion. Was it narcissism, untreated mental illness, or something more sinister? We explore how Lori and her doomsday partner Chad Daybell spiraled into a shared belief system so extreme it blurred the lines between spiritual obsession and calculated homicide. Why didn't anyone stop her—and could it happen again? #LoriVallow #ChadDaybell #DelusionalDisorder #TrueCrimePodcast #LDSextremism #ShavaunScott #MentalIllnessAndCrime #HiddenKillersPodcast #ZombiesAndMurder #LoriVallowTrial Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Cult of Karen: Inside the Extremes of Her Supporters and Detractors An intoxicated woman. A dead police officer. A community split down the middle. What started as a tragic accident has spiraled into a full-blown war of public opinion, complete with viral conspiracy theories, witness intimidation, and phone dumps on army bases. In this chilling breakdown of the Karen Read case, psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott helps unpack why average people have transformed into digital crusaders—camping outside courthouses, harassing witnesses, and clinging to narratives that might never be proven. What is it about this case that triggers such intense tribal loyalty? And how do internet echo chambers create alternate realities with devastating real-world consequences? From the psychology of conspiracies to the shady behavior of investigators, this conversation exposes how modern true crime isn't just about guilt or innocence—it's about identity. #karenread #karenreadtrial #johnokeefe #shavaunscott #truecrimepodcast #conspiracytheories #massachusettscrime #hiddenkillers #tonybruski #psychologyandcrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Psychology Behind Karen Read's 'Confession' – Shavaun Scott Breaks It Down What happens when a woman with a hazy memory, a high blood alcohol count, and a house full of police becomes the center of a homicide investigation? Day one of Karen Read's retrial kicks off with the kind of courtroom tension and narrative twists that force you to question everything. Was it an accident fueled by alcohol and chaos, or a convenient scapegoating wrapped in power dynamics and alleged cover-ups? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins to dissect the psychology behind Karen Read's shifting statements—from early speculation and remorse to outright denial. Is she a woman genuinely haunted by blank spaces in her memory, or is she rewriting reality to survive? We dive into how trauma, peer pressure, and legal strategy might be colliding in one of Massachusetts' most polarizing trials. Featuring analysis of her Dateline interview, courtroom developments, and deeper insight into gaslighting and false memory, this episode explores what makes this case so disturbingly unforgettable. #KarenRead #TrueCrimePodcast #KarenReadTrial #ShavaunScott #BostonPoliceCoverUp #Gaslighting #FalseMemory #TonyBrueski #HiddenKillersPodcast #KarenReadRetrial Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

When love feels perfect but ends in tragedy—what did we miss? On this episode of Murder in the Morning with Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole, we dissect the chilling psychology behind relationships that turn deadly. Joining us is therapist Sonnet Daymont, currently authoring When Dangerous Feels Like Home, a memoir on healing from trauma. She explains how emotional abuse often begins in silence—with over-the-top affection, manipulation disguised as kindness, and patterns that echo past pain. Why do some people keep choosing danger over safety? What separates emotional immaturity from calculated cruelty? And how can early red flags help us stop these tragedies before they escalate? From the eerie calm of love bombing to the invisible trauma of childhood that shapes who we fall for, this conversation cuts deep into the disturbing truth behind crimes like Lori Vallow Daybell's. #narcissisticabuse #darktriad #emotionalabuse #lovetrianglecrime #lorivallowdaybell #relationshipredflags #truecrimepsychology #murderinthemorning #toxicrelationships #tonybrueskiandstacycole Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Could Karen Read be using the narcissist's playbook to manipulate public opinion in her alleged role in the death of John O'Keefe? What begins as a look into a toxic relationship quickly unravels into a psychological maze of contradictions, conspiracy, and chaos. Tony Brueski teams up with psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott to dissect the alleged behavioral patterns that mirror classic narcissistic and borderline personality traits—gaslighting, flying monkeys, and shifting stories included. From Karen's changing public narrative and contradictory interviews to the supporters who've seemingly abandoned their own lives to champion her cause, nothing is off-limits. Scott offers a psychological lens on how traits from Cluster B disorders may explain Karen's erratic statements and emotional responses—without jumping to diagnoses or conclusions. As the conversation digs deeper, the bizarre cult-like fervor of Karen's defenders is put under the microscope: who are these people, and how did a murder case become a full-blown social crusade? Is this just another tale of cognitive dissonance gone wild, or something much more dangerous? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrimeToday #NarcissismExplained #ClusterB #FlyingMonkeys #HiddenKillers Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

What kind of person burns their life down to support someone they've never met—especially someone accused of murder? Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dig into the psychology behind the super fans of alleged killer Karen Read, questioning what drives ordinary people to lose their grip on reality in the name of "justice." From people flying across countries and going bankrupt just to protest outside courtrooms, to disturbing voicemails and bizarre courtroom behavior, this episode dives headfirst into what might be going on in the minds of Read's supporters—and Read herself. Is it narcissism? Projection? Insecurity? Why does someone accuse their partner of cheating with the same breath they use to try seducing his friends? As Brueski and Scott dissect her emotional tirades, courtroom smirks, and lack of empathy—especially towards the children of the man she's accused of killing—it raises a chilling question: what kind of person identifies with this behavior, and why are they so eager to defend it? What does it say about us when red flags look like rally cries? #KarenRead #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #ShavaunScott #PsychologyOfCrime #TrueCrimeToday Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

How many red flags does it take before we stop calling it a parade? Karen Read's alleged involvement in the death of John O'Keefe has all the markings of a psychological thriller—complete with shifting narratives, emotionally charged text messages, and an army of supporters ready to go to battle on her behalf. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to unpack the alleged narcissistic behaviors on display, from gaslighting to full-blown flying monkey recruitment. Is Karen really playing from the narcissist's playbook, or is this just what chaos looks like when mixed with grief, alcohol, and a wildly public case? The inconsistencies in her story, the borderline-style emotional flare-ups, and the cult-like devotion of strangers waving signs in her name—none of it adds up neatly. But it does make one hell of a case study. Are we witnessing a master manipulator at work, or a community desperately trying to make sense of tragedy? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #NarcissisticAbuse #TrueCrimePodcast #ClusterBPersonality #FlyingMonkeys #GaslightingExposed Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

What really happened that night—was it a tragic accident or something far more calculated? Karen Read's shifting stories and foggy memories make it hard to pin down the truth. One minute she's unsure if she even hit him, the next she's got vivid recollections involving loud U2 music and emotional play-by-plays. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to dig into the inconsistencies and psychological clues that may reveal what's really going on in her mind. We're talking memory blackouts, the bizarre Dateline clip, and whether someone can genuinely convince themselves of a false reality. And what's the deal with her relationship with John O'Keefe? Why do empathetic people seem to end up with partners who bulldoze holidays and flip out over innocent conversations? Throw in booze, alleged toxic dynamics, and potential narcissistic traits (we're not diagnosing, just observing), and you've got a tangled mess that keeps getting weirder. Is Karen a victim of her own mind—or does she know more than she lets on? What other memories might surface—and will any of them actually lead to the truth? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #FalseMemories #ToxicRelationships #DatelineMystery Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

Is Lori Vallow Daybell really a misunderstood prophet—or just a full-blown narcissist who thinks she can out-lawyer a courtroom? In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we dive into Lori's Arizona murder trial where she's playing both defendant and defense attorney. Yes, the woman already convicted of murdering her children is now cross-examining her grieving relatives like she's starring in her own courtroom drama. Joined by psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott, we explore Lori's grandiosity, religious delusions, and her unsettling lack of remorse. From asking if her murdered husband was a good kisser to using Burger King as an alibi for why she wasn't grieving, Lori's detachment from reality is both terrifying and bizarrely theatrical. With courtroom antics that include flirty interrogations and wild gaslighting, the question isn't just whether she did it—it's how deep the delusion goes. Is this just narcissism turned up to 11, or are we witnessing the unraveling of a self-declared goddess who believes her own fantasy? What happens when someone's religious fervor becomes the excuse for murder? #LoriVallow #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalAnalysis #CourtroomDrama #HiddenKillers #ShavaunScott #NarcissismUnmasked Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

What happens when a man is thrown into solitary for 14 months before he's even convicted of a crime? Richard Allen's jailhouse phone calls are finally out, and they're brutal. Not because he confesses—because he doesn't. But because you can hear the unraveling. His voice cracks, his mind spirals, and what starts as desperation quickly turns into something a lot darker. He tells his wife he loves her. He tells his mom goodbye. And he wonders aloud if anyone even loves him anymore. Is this the voice of a killer? Or someone being mentally crushed in a system that's more about pressure than proof? How much damage can you do to someone before they'll say whatever you want to hear? #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrimeToday #HiddenKillersPodcast #ShavaunScott #WrongfulConvictions #SolitaryConfinement Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What kind of person turns a college homework assignment into a possible blueprint for murder? Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dive into the eerie overlap between Bryan Kohberger's 2020 essay and the brutal killings he's now alleged to have committed. Was it just a well-written assignment, or something far darker—a calculated rehearsal? They explore the psychology behind individuals drawn to criminology with violent intent, the clinical detachment required to either solve a murder or allegedly commit one, and how narcissism, psychopathy, and sadism could form a deadly combination. Kohberger's emotional disconnection, possible hatred toward women, and chillingly calm courtroom presence raise questions that go far beyond the textbook. Is this someone born with a dark wiring, or someone who learned how to mask it perfectly? Did he always plan to become the suspect—or the star? #BryanKohberger #TrueCrimeToday #HiddenKillersPodcast #DarkTetrad #UniversityOfIdahoMurders #PsychologicalProfiling #CrimeSceneMindset Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What happens when an alleged confession comes from someone in the middle of a complete psychotic break? This episode dives deep into some of the disturbing phone calls and jailhouse recordings that many are pointing to as proof of guilt in the Delphi murders—only there's a glaring problem. The confessions are coming from a man who may not even know what's real anymore. Between drinking toilet water, eating Bible pages, and singing while masturbating on the floor, this isn't your average criminal profile. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to unpack whether any of this could—or should—hold up in court. Is this really justice, or just the unraveling of someone broken by the system? Can someone so far gone truly confess to anything? #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrimeToday #PsychoticBreak #HiddenKillersPodcast #ShavaunScott #FalseConfession Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What happens when flawed forensics and relentless pressure collide in the interrogation room? Richard Allen's interrogation in connection to the Delphi murders wasn't just aggressive—it was an unsettling blend of manipulation, outdated techniques, and a total disregard for modern psychological understanding. Tony Brueski teams up with psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott to dissect the disturbing tactics used by investigators, who allegedly relied on made-up expert evidence and relentless emotional pressure in hopes of forcing a confession. Allen's initial interviews reveal a man who sounds rational, lucid, and—most of all—genuinely confused as to why he's being treated like the fall guy in a case that still haunts Indiana. Is this a textbook example of how to break someone down, or a masterclass in how to pin it on the wrong guy? #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrimePodcast #WrongfulAccusation #PoliceInterrogation #HiddenKillers #ShavaunScott Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott Breaks Down The Initial Delphi Police Interrogation of Richard Allen How do you get a man to confess to something he didn't do? Easy—just throw every shady interrogation tactic in the book at him and hope something sticks. When Richard Allen was brought in for questioning about the alleged Delphi murders of Abby and Libby, the detectives didn't exactly hold back. They leaned hard into psychological warfare: outdated Law & Order tricks, misleading “evidence,” and emotional manipulation that made it feel more like a 1950s TV drama than a modern investigation. With no confession and no solid evidence, they just kept pushing. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to analyze the interrogation—clip by painful clip. What does it do to someone's mind when they're accused of something horrific, and they know they didn't do it? How do cops justify dragging someone to the edge of a breakdown just to close a case? And at what point does this stop looking like an investigation and start looking like a setup? Is Richard Allen really just an ordinary guy caught in the worst kind of nightmare? #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrime #PoliceInterrogation #WrongfulAccusation #HiddenKillers #ShavaunScott Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What if the only thing tying someone to a murder scene is a single unspent bullet—and the supposed match is based on science that's barely admissible in court? Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dig into the second interrogation of alleged Delphi killer Richard Allen, and it's a rough watch. With no digital history, no witnesses, and no prior criminal record, the prosecution's big move is a bullet found at the crime scene—but only after cops had already taken Allen's gun. Makes you wonder which came first: the evidence or the need for a suspect? Allen stays shockingly consistent under pressure, even when investigators start dragging his wife and daughter into the emotional line of fire. From manipulated family confrontations to outright lies about expert witnesses, the whole thing feels more like a psychological beatdown than an actual interrogation. How do you defend yourself when the system already seems convinced you're guilty? Is this justice—or just desperation? #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #TrueCrimePodcast #PoliceInterrogation #WrongfulConviction #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What kind of person allegedly studies the art of the perfect crime—and then seems to leave behind a digital trail of breadcrumbs like it's part of the plan? In this unnervingly fascinating dive into the alleged behavior of Bryan Kohberger, Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott unpack the chilling possibility that the University of Idaho murder suspect may have been playing out a twisted homage to his favorite horror films. From eerie similarities to American Psycho and Psycho to bizarre shower selfies and internet personas like “Papa Rogers,” the details keep getting darker and more surreal. Was the tight-buttoned shirt and thumbs-up in the bathroom a taunt to the world? A sick inside joke? Or an alleged nod to cinematic killers he may have admired? And how often do alleged killers find inspiration in movies and mass murderers of the past? If these breadcrumbs were left on purpose, what other pieces might still be out there waiting to be discovered? #BryanKohberger #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #IdahoMurders #AmericanPsycho #TrueCrimeCommunity #PsychologicalProfiling Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Was Karen Read seeking justice—or just someone to keep telling her she's right? When a Boston police officer, John O'Keefe, turns up dead and Karen Read is charged with his alleged murder, things spiral into more than just a courtroom drama. Encrypted messages, endless hours of contact with a controversial blogger (who might have a bit of a crush), and a defense that screams “cover-up” more than “clear-cut”—this case is a messy mix of emotion, obsession, and chaos. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to break down the psychological whirlwind behind Read's actions: from potentially manipulative behavior, to an almost teenage-like hunger for validation, to whether this entire saga is driven by guilt or just a need to win—at any cost. With a former juror now bizarrely on her legal team and behavior that looks more like a reality show than a murder trial, one question lingers... Will Karen Read be convicted based on her personality instead of the evidence? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #LegalDrama #PsychologicalAnalysis #TonyBrueski Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Could a self-declared prophet really be her own best defense attorney—while on trial for conspiracy to murder? Lori Vallow Daybell isn't just accused of plotting her husband's death—she's also decided she's the right person to argue her own case in court. Yeah, because nothing says “stable and innocent” like cross-examining witnesses in shackles. In this episode, Tony Brueski and psychotherapist/author Shavaun Scott dive into the chilling psychology of Lori Vallow Daybell. From beauty queen and game show contestant to cult follower and alleged killer, Lori's journey is packed with delusion, narcissism, and a little too much confidence for someone on trial for murder. They explore her manipulative nature, religious delusions, and the disturbing dynamic between her and alleged cult leader Chad Daybell—think less “meant to be,” more “shared psychosis with a body count.” What makes someone truly believe their spouse is a demon and deserves to die? And worse—how do they convince others to believe it too? #LoriVallowDaybell #TrueCrimePodcast #CultMentality #PsychologicalDisorders #MurderTrial #HiddenKillers #DarkPsychology Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Was justice actually served, or are we witnessing another case where the system seems to have its mind made up—facts be damned? Richard Allen is staring down 130 years in prison, but with his confession riddled with bizarre, impossible claims (like admitting to killing a grandchild that doesn't exist), it's fair to ask—was this a real confession, or just the broken ramblings of a man driven to the edge? And why were other potential suspects seemingly ignored despite overwhelming evidence? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to dissect how the justice system sometimes prioritizes narrative over truth. When prosecutors refuse to budge even in the face of new revelations, is it about protecting their egos—or something far more sinister? #TrueCrime #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #JusticeSystem #Psychology #WrongfulConvictions #HiddenKillers Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Did Karen Read really forget what happened that night, or is she just hoping everyone else does? A new perspective on her testimony paints a picture of shifting memories, missing details, and a whole lot of unanswered questions. From angry voicemails to an alleged love triangle, and even the role of alcohol-induced memory gaps—how much of her story actually holds up? And if she was so certain of what happened, why did her own words contradict each other? Dive into the twists and turns of this case with Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott as they dissect the inconsistencies, the psychology, and the shocking details that could change everything.

What really happened the night John O'Keefe died? Was it a tragic accident, a crime of passion, or something even more twisted? As Karen Read's trial looms, the recent HBO Max and Investigation Discovery documentary, Body in the Snow: The Trial of Karen Read, peels back the layers of her story—though maybe not in the way she expected. Despite initially appearing to be a chance for her to set the record straight, the documentary raises even more questions about Read's version of events. From inconsistencies in her statements to the murky details of her relationship with O'Keefe, it's clear that nothing about this case is straightforward. One moment, she's describing a deep connection with O'Keefe; the next, she's downplaying their relationship altogether. And then there's the eyebrow-raising flirtation with another man just before O'Keefe's death—an insignificant detail, or a glimpse into a relationship unraveling? As the trial approaches, all eyes are on Read. Will the evidence clear her name, or will it expose a web of contradictions too tangled to ignore? #KarenRead #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #JohnOkeefe #CrimeDocumentary #InvestigationDiscovery #HBOMax Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Could Karen Read have really been involved in a cover-up, or is this just another case of conspiracy theories running wild? When alcohol, unreliable memories, and a mysterious late-night incident collide, the truth gets harder to pin down. In this episode, Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dive deep into the murky details surrounding the alleged killing of John O'Keefe. Was it a tragic accident, or is there something far more sinister at play? With shifting narratives, questionable recollections, and a blogger-turned-investigator stirring the pot, the case takes a bizarre turn. Read's defense claims O'Keefe was beaten inside a house and then dumped outside, but does that theory hold any weight? And what happens when a small-town case turns into a full-blown media circus, fueled by leaks and an obsession with finding the "real" culprits? And let's not forget the unexpected twist—Read's close relationship with a controversial blogger who allegedly went rogue, pushing theories and intimidating witnesses. Is this about justice, or has the case spiraled into something far more chaotic? At the heart of it all, one question remains: what really happened to John O'Keefe that night? #TrueCrime #KarenRead #JohnOkeefe #HiddenKillers #CrimeConspiracy #CourtroomDrama #JusticeOrCoverUp Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What makes a person look at Charles Manson and think, “Yeah, this guy seems like a great life coach”? For most of us, his wild-eyed ranting and swastika-scarred forehead scream “run,” but for his devoted followers, he was the ultimate guru. So how did this failed musician and career criminal convince a group of lost souls to commit some of the most infamous murders in history? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to dissect the twisted psychology of Manson—his extreme narcissism, manipulative genius, and uncanny ability to prey on the vulnerable. Was he a true believer in his own Helter Skelter fantasy, or just an opportunistic con man who knew how to play the game? And more importantly, could anyone be pulled into a cult like his under the right circumstances? If Leslie Van Houten can get parole, can we ever really trust that someone has escaped the psychological grip of a cult? Or is there always a risk they'll be selling Amway by the end of the week? #TrueCrime #CharlesManson #CultPsychology #MindControl #HiddenKillers #ShavaunScott #CrimeAnalysis Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What makes a person not just follow, but kill for someone like Charles Manson? Sure, he had the whole unhinged, scruffy cult leader aesthetic going, but what was it about him that made people not just listen, but actually pick up knives and do his dirty work? Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dive into the dark psychology of Manson—his charm, his manipulation, and the perfect storm of personality disorders that made him a walking nightmare. From LSD-fueled brainwashing to the lost souls he preyed upon, we're breaking down how Manson turned a group of young drifters into a murder squad. But was he truly in control, or just a delusional lunatic who lucked into the right kind of followers? And the bigger question—could something like this still happen today? #CharlesManson #TrueCrime #CultPsychology #MindControl #SerialKillers #Manipulation #Psychopathy Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What happens when a prosecutor is so convinced of their own story that they ignore evidence to the contrary? In the latest twist of the Delphi case, Richard Allen's defense team is calling out the state of Indiana for allegedly withholding key evidence—again. This time, they claim an inmate's letters suggest that someone else may have confessed to the murders. Is this just another case of legal maneuvering, or are we witnessing confirmation bias run amok in the justice system? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins the conversation to break down the psychology behind prosecutors who seemingly refuse to let go of their version of events. Are they just determined to win, or is something more insidious at play? And the bigger question—when critical thinking takes a back seat to blind belief, how does that impact justice for all? #DelphiMurders #TrueCrime #RichardAllen #JusticeSystem #HiddenKillers #PsychologyOfCrime #LegalThriller Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Could an innocent man be wasting away in prison while the real killer walks free? Richard Allen sits behind bars, sentenced to 130 years, but his confession seems more like the ramblings of a broken man than an admission of guilt. After 14 months in solitary confinement, he emerged a shadow of himself, claiming responsibility for crimes that defy logic—including one against a grandchild that doesn't even exist. So why is the prosecution clinging to this? And why were other key suspects, like Keegan Klein and Ron Logan, seemingly ignored despite damning evidence? Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dig into the murky waters of this case, questioning whether justice has been sacrificed at the altar of ego, or if something even more sinister is at play. Is the justice system failing to seek the truth, or has it never really been about truth at all? #TrueCrime #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #HiddenKillers #JusticeSystem #CrimePodcast #LegalCorruption Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Was justice actually served, or are we witnessing another case where the system seems to have its mind made up—facts be damned? Richard Allen is staring down 130 years in prison, but with his confession riddled with bizarre, impossible claims (like admitting to killing a grandchild that doesn't exist), it's fair to ask—was this a real confession, or just the broken ramblings of a man driven to the edge? And why were other potential suspects seemingly ignored despite overwhelming evidence? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to dissect how the justice system sometimes prioritizes narrative over truth. When prosecutors refuse to budge even in the face of new revelations, is it about protecting their egos—or something far more sinister? #TrueCrime #DelphiMurders #RichardAllen #JusticeSystem #Psychology #WrongfulConvictions #HiddenKillers Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What makes a person follow a madman to the ends of the earth—and in some cases, to the point of murder? Charles Manson wasn't just a cult leader; he was a psychological anomaly, a master manipulator with an uncanny ability to lure vulnerable people into his orbit. But was he truly a criminal mastermind, or just a delusional man who happened to find the right (or wrong) audience? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to dissect the mind of one of the most infamous figures in history. From his extreme personality disorders to the eerie way he could turn lost young people into devoted followers, this conversation dives deep into the psychology of control. Was Manson any different from gang leaders, military commanders, or radical influencers throughout history? And more importantly—could someone like him rise to power again today? #TrueCrime #CharlesManson #PsychologicalManipulation #CultMentality #MansonFamily #MindControl #ShavaunScott Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Was Kevin Franke a clueless victim of psychological manipulation, or was he just too comfortable letting someone else call the shots—even when it meant his own kids were suffering? The Hulu documentary Devil in the Family peels back the layers of one of the most twisted true crime cases in recent years, exposing how extreme parenting, blind faith, and YouTube fame created the perfect storm for abuse to thrive. Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dig into the psyche of Kevin Franke—the father of six who claims he had no idea what was happening inside his own home. How does someone convince themselves that their spouse's increasingly extreme behavior is just "parenting techniques" and not outright abuse? And more importantly, how do you walk away from your own children for a year because a self-proclaimed guru told you to? Kevin insists he was blindsided, but can you really be a passive bystander when your own kids are suffering? And after everything, why does he still say he loves Ruby Franke? Is he on a path to healing, or is he just one manipulative figure away from falling into another trap? #TrueCrime #RubyFranke #HiddenKillers #PsychologyOfAbuse #ExtremeParenting #CultMentality #KevinFranke Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What happens when a sheriff walks into a courthouse and shoots a sitting judge? A cold-blooded act of revenge or a psychological break under extreme emotional distress? That's the question swirling around this bizarre and deeply tangled case involving a courthouse sex-for-leniency scandal, a deposition that may have held damning secrets, and a sheriff who turned himself in claiming his family was in danger. Now, the defense is pushing for an insanity plea, but does the evidence support it? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott breaks down what it truly takes for someone to reach a psychological breaking point like this. Was this an unpredictable snap, or was there something much more calculated at play? And just how deep does the corruption run in this courthouse? #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #CourthouseScandal #PsychologicalBreak #Corruption #CrimeNews #InsanityDefense Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
